Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coating processing, and particularly relates to a hot melt drill with a high-performance coating. Background Technique
[0002] The hot melt drilling process is a chip-free processing technology for machining holes and bushings on metal sheets or pipes at one time, completely replacing the process of welding (riveting) nuts on thin-walled workpieces. The hot melt drill is made of wear-resistant and high-temperature-resistant cemented carbide material.
[0003] When the tool contacts the workpiece, a high rotational speed (1000 - 3500) and an appropriate axial thrust (feed force) cause intense friction between the drill bit and the metal, instantly reaching a temperature of 650 - 750 °C. The metal in the area near the drill bit quickly softens. Continuing to apply axial pressure, a boss and a bushing about 3 times the thickness of the original sheet are quickly extruded on the upper and lower surfaces of the workpiece. The whole process only takes 2 - 6 seconds. For the processing of surfaces that require smooth connections or chamfered holes, a flat drill bit can be used to cut off the boss formed on the workpiece surface. The bushing can be used as a bearing support, a bifurcated throat weld joint, etc., and can also be tapped for threaded connections. The thread is formed by rolling, and the processed thread can withstand higher tensile force and torque. The chip-free drilling process is suitable for processing common steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and other various ductile workpiece materials, and can also process electroplated workpieces. It can be used on a manual bench drill or a CNC machine tool, with a required power of 1.5 - 3.5 kW and a spindle speed of 1000 - 3500 r / min. According to the different diameters of the holes to be processed, workpiece materials, and thicknesses, the selected cutting parameters are also different. Advantages: High efficiency, economy, material saving, and the processed workpieces are relatively beautiful. However, the disadvantage is that the uncoated one can only process dozens of holes before significant wear occurs, resulting in a high cost. Content of the Utility Model
